CISOs are currently under more pressure than ever to deliver results with lean teams and increasingly scrutinized budgets.

CISOs’ scope continues to expand while boards and leaders are continually focused on cyber budgets and program execution. At the same time, resources are tight and orgs are still figuring out how to navigate emerging areas of digital risk – particularly AI and its corresponding data governance implications.

CISOs who navigate these challenges successfully will set themselves apart by enhancing their personal brand and the reputation and success of the programs they lead.

In this session, IANS Faculty Steve Martano and IANS Senior Research Director Nick Kakolowski will provide a deep dive into the current state of the CISO role. They’ll cover:

• How the job scope of the CISO is shifting and what CISOs think about those changes.
• Trends in how CISOs are interacting with the board and advice for influencing at the highest levels of the organization.
• Market observations and anecdotal guidance on how to position yourself to achieve your career goals.
